Ive murked san andreas hard. 3 completes but I spent a lot of my time doing hidden shit, fave thing to do:

steal fighter jet or commercial jet
fly to los santos business district at high altitude
jump out of plane about 100ft above tallest skyscraper
skydive on to roof of building
pick up new parachute and base jump to the ground!!

Its fucking intense you can do that on a computer game! oh and I think the gang wars bit is shit hot, even if my own niggers are dumb fucks. If only Rockstar couldve made up a control system similar to "Freedom Fighter"...thats a bit much though i spose.

I like driving around in that game, it's so huge and you find really cool jumps and ramps everywhere. It's cool how the screen gets all blurry when you're hauling ass.

I like that too :D Or using cheat codes to spawn a monster truck on top of a tall building and drive it off the building. As long as it lands upright it won't blow up, and you get big stunt bonuses :D Another favorite time-killer is the pool game in the bars, and jet-packing to the top of a building, using cheat codes for weapons and aiming the missle launcher into the street to blow up passing traffic. The cops at first can't go after you and you can stand there and blow up cop cars for a long time, eventually this will get you enough stars that they'll send helicopters... which you can blow out of the sky again and again :D

...how are they going to blow our minds with the next one? :eek:

Rockstar need to bring it home, yeah that's right back to England Y'all! I know there was a GTA 1 London game, but that was only with 1's graphics and was more of an add-on than a new game. They could set another one in cockney london that's all I'm saying :)

I'm not sure what else they could do in American style cities? I'd prefer like the Brazilian ghetto or something...but then again how are phat cars (that you can nitro up, another wicked part of the game) and the sickest gats (Helicopter Gun anyone?) fonna be feasibly in there?

hmmm I might have to start another game tonight got me geek juices flowin again.

I hear it's supposed to take place in Tokyo and deal with all of the asian gangs and what not.

Herr Lipp

07-19-2005, 05:07 AM

Yes that will be fucking awesome. I hope the character is Yakuza, they fuckin rule. I dont care if its a Sanny clone man, a Tokyo game would be SHIT HOT! They could develop teh sword play and martial arts system! DUDE!

It will probablly be London first, but they have copyrighted GTA-Tokyo, so that will almost be certainly be coming at some point.
Also copyrighted, GTA-Seattle and GTA-Toronto.

Mission 1:

Swallow the condoms filled with crack cocaine and board the plane.

and later a game on its own..

yeah, but all the remodelled games for the PS2 have been based on the early cities. In order of release:

GTA1= Liberty City, San Fierro, Vice City
GTALondon (only works if you have GTA1)
GTA2= Very odd game, not based on real-life cities
GTA3=Liberty City
GTA:Vice City
GTA:San Andreas (Los Santos, San Fierro, Las Venturas)

The ones for Playstation were ass.

Herr Lipp

07-20-2005, 09:51 AM

shut yo' mouth blasphemer! GTA1 is equally as good as GTA3. YOu gotta think about teh timescales man! Oh and it wasnt a playstation game, it was a PC game to start with. I was 11 when GTA1 came out...or 12 at teh most. The content was fucking mental for the time let me tell you! The missions were better in teh first one to be true......

anyone see the grand theft auto film? i just owndered if the games were based on it at all, other than the box design.

You mean the one with Ron Howard? I doubt the game were based on it 'cos it was only a PG soi doubt that one of the most violent games ever was based on it.

It's funny that such an uproar came about over sex scenes that can apparently only be unlocked with a special code or hacking skill ("Hot Coffee?" What the fuck is that? I wanna see the sex scenes too!!) but in the non-hacked version you can beat a guy to death with a giant purple dildo, but hey that's okay cause that doesn't require hacking to view!! Also I found it funny that they changed the rating from "Mature" to "Adults Only". Mature = age 17 + Adults Only = age 18 +
"Oh darn, now I'm gonna have to wait a whole year to see the sex scenes!!" :lol:

exactly. it really doesnt matter, its a bit of a non-story. Its not being pulled, it just being reclassified by whole solitary year. Most current 17 year olds who want it, will already have it.

I think an 18 cert. is fair enough, it got that back in the UK. Its an adult game, let adults play it uncensored.

No, it doesnt. You just put a R sticker over the M. Thats what they did with the first issue Manhunt in the UK. Dummy.

Oh let me guess, you have to take it off the shelves to put a sticker on. :rolleyes:

We don't have R and M rating in the UK. Manhunt was always rated 18. It only got taken off the shelves when the killings started. Dummy. :-p

They do in America, which is the part of the world where the certificate change is taking place. Dummy.

Also Manhunt wasnt given a rating to begin with and the 18 stickers were added on to the first issue after the box was produced. I know, I have one. Dummy.

The controversy over the game caught the attention of US senator Hillary Clinton who had called for an investigation into who put the scenes into GTA: San Andreas.
Imagining this is making me giggle.

I only just bought Vice City for my PC because it was on sale for $20. It's great, but I'm trying to finish Half Life 2 first. I'm just not dedicated enough to be a hardcore gamer... :cry:

nah man, not in england I live in england too but it would be too much like another getaway game y'know?

the tokyo thing sounds very cool

Herr Lipp

08-21-2005, 05:27 AM

the Getaway was poor. The only decent thing about it was some of the script. GTA would be better in england than getaway BUT I would rather they did Tokyo.

Kris Klam

08-21-2005, 06:01 AM

Dude, I never knew about the Easter Basien car transportation missions in San Andreas. I never bothered to finish the car school in the game, but this time around I did. This is seriously a game where you discover new things everytime you play through.

Herr Lipp

08-21-2005, 06:07 AM

I completed another game the other day. My friend told me he found the commercial passenger jet (like a 747 sized one) in one of the hangers of Los Santos at a certain time. I wanna find that shit!

Reginald I. Perrin

08-21-2005, 11:11 AM

I think it's actually at Las Venturas airport...a big, big hangar will open at certain times of the day, with a big commercial plane (AT-400) inside. It rules.

kyanite

08-22-2005, 07:10 AM

Yeah Tokyo would be very cool, you have triads,but who else could they include? Im all for grand theft auto fun right now, we need some jamaicans in that game lol

Herr Lipp

08-23-2005, 06:13 AM

Triads are Chinese!
Yakuza are Japanese!

but yeah I loved teh Jamaican Yardies in "III" to quote "boo boos bin 'ittin up me queen lizzy, 'ead to 'epburn 'eights an kill me some filthy diablos." and then after the mission: "quick, lets get back 2 dee yard!"

and teh haitians were pretty funny in Vice City. All teh "Joo-Joo" and all that.

Blake cool I might have to go find that, though I'm pretty bored with flying and parachuting now. I think I've done probably everything worth doing in the world of San Andreas. I can;t be assed to get 100% though, the cats that do that are lacking in their lives man, it takes forever.

Yo Fraser the hell-raiser,

You seen the miniseries Band of Brothers?

Herr Lipp

08-23-2005, 06:53 AM

Band of Brothers makes me cum in my fucking pants.

"Leicester....SQUARE!"

i used to think it was a tad over-bearing on the old US but then I realised its not at all it just happens to be a story mainly focused on an american unit so of course its gonna be US-mad. Theres some fantastic actors in it. Id buy it on DVD if it werent so expensive. And I cant download it :( It was part made by the BBC I think....with HBO.

What you up to Kristoph? Have a nice weekend? I took Friday and Monday off so had a 4 day weekend but it pissed down (rained) hard which sucked ass. Looking forward to the Family Guy movie?

Yeah, luckily my parents wanted to see it so they picked it up. It's crazy man, I live like only a hour or so from where a lot of this shit went down.

Kirk Acevedo, who plays Miguel Alvarez in Oz plays Joseph Toye in BOB. I'm only on the second disc of Band of Brothers so far, but it's been intense man.

I had an alright weekend, went out drinking with some friends. I got shitfaced last night and put spent nearly 20 euro in the jukebox playing AC/DC and Metallica.

I heard the Family Guy movie is supposed to be pretty lame, but I'll still see it.

Herr Lipp

08-23-2005, 07:58 AM

Ha Ha, nice.

The Family Guy movie has swearing so im sure it will raise a few smirks.

Band Of Brothers gets better as it goes on. Theres a few legend british actors in there too. Yeah thats mad about Belgium and the war man. I imagine it to be quite humbling. I'm pretty sure it was Belgium/France where a lot of the harsher World War I battles took place. And that is where the big poppy fields are (buying a poppy on rememberance day (11th November) is traditional in Britain).

Kris Klam

08-23-2005, 12:45 PM

What a brilliant miniseries, everyone should see it.

I'm going to watch the bonus special features disc later on.

I completed it with bare minimum missions in about 20 hours over the last few weeks.

Best missions involve the two english dudes man. Kent Paul (Im from Kent yay!) and the one who can;t stop wanking and doing E's. Proper funny.

08-24-2005, 05:06 AM

I've never beaten the game 100%, or even beaten all the missions in the game.

I've NEVER been able to beat that mission for Zero where you have to fly the toy plane and shoot the delivery guys. I can never get back in time before the plane runs out of fuel.

Herr Lipp

08-24-2005, 05:10 AM

Oh yeah the Zero missions are tricky. With that flying one you have to pick the right course, its mostly luck really, and blowing up the ppl quick enough. I found teh Zero mini-gun mission even harder though. Takes me at least 14 warm up tries!

It's insane, those are the hardest missions in the game and they're pretty much of the least importance. Do you get to collect money from his store if you complete them?

I just stumbled across the airplane races, I never knew that was in the game!

The best bit of the game are the missions you do for the CIA guy. Also, the one you do for The Truth where you have to sneak into the military compound and steal the jet pack, just amazing.

The last mission was a bit of trouble to, seeing as it's so long.

Herr Lipp

08-24-2005, 05:52 AM

I didnt know about the airplane races? Where are they mang?

Yeah Mike Toreno's missions are pretty good. They all involve phat shit at the end. I like the one where you have to bike into the moving plane then fuck those CIA guys up. The Truth is a legend, but I thought they couldve made CJ a bit of a stoner. That wouldve pleased me but only because I smoke weed. Ryder was a mashhead heh heh he was cool before you had to fuck him up.

Oh the Zero mission only gives you 5000 its shit. I done the saving mini-cheat (just bet 1m if you lose it reload and try again) at the casinos so Ive got 2mdont really need money. Ive finally decked CJ out in a Didier Sachs Green Pimp Suit with Trilby and Spats shoes. He looks sharp!

The more and more I play it teh more english it seems to me (rockstar are english). Like I left teh dirtring challenge early and the screen popped up with "Youve bottled it". No americans use that term. Id be surprised if the majority knew what it meant.

The plane races start at the airport on the third island (with the Casinos). There should be an icon there, but I never noticed it because it's small and grey, so I figured it was a piece of street, ya know??

I'm not sure what you have to do to unlock them. On the second island, once you pass the driving test and get a hold of the car company, you get to do vehicle races (motorcylces, go-carts, cars) that pay 10,000 for every number one position you get.

Herr Lipp

08-24-2005, 06:41 AM

hmm I was gonna do all the car races the other day, but couldnt be assed. When you get number 1 on all of them I think you could a) money from teh shop and b) a selecion of phat cars.

Im proper bored today can;t be fucked with work....and Im on these tablets that make you well drowsy, which I dont mind, but Id prefer to mong out at home watching TV with a fucking bacon sandwich on the go *cries*

Theres a little cafe over teh road called "Baguetteaway" that do nice toasted sandwiches. I might go and get a bacon and sausage one, aswell as my peanut butter sandwiches in my bag. Im mad hungry.

Nothing in the world of fried food has beaten this burger I had one time at the holiday camp, from one of those little burger vans.

It was a 1/4lb er burger in a bum with cheese, sausage, bacon, egg, onions, salad. Chicken was optional and I left it out because the above (a lot of the things came in two like two rashers of bacon etc...) was more than enough for anyone, and mad greasy. A proper handful. cue my stomach rumbling ha ha ha Im gonna monk hard at lunchtime.
